Happy Easter! Happy Resurrection Day! My family and I are today celebrating that when Jesus came back to life He proved that nothing could keep us separated from God anymore, not even death.
In honor of the Great resurrection, I made a video to celebrate a tiny resurrection, a C&S resurrection that had its beginnings almost one year ago: the return of C&S gondola 4319 to Como, Colorado. For too many years, it sat alone and with little care in a Central City park, wasting away in the elements. Today, the South Park Rail Society has the following plans for her:
We are very pleased to report that we have been awarded a grant from the Tom E. Dailey Foundation. This grant will go towards the complete restoration of Colorado & Southern gondola #4319. In 2018 the South Park Rail Society raised the funds needed to move the #4310 from Central City to Como, Colorado. The railcar is now scheduled to begin a full restoration inside the Como roundhouse.
Enjoy this short film of photos and video of the only remaining C&S narrow gauge gondola from 1941 to its new start in 2018.
